GODIN SAYS ABOUT “FRUIT-A-TIVES” GREENWAY S' INew and Finer Pontiac Six bodies, in their smart belted effects and in their luxurious comfort! Rich Duco finish, in the latest and most appealing colors, adds to the striking beauty ox the New and Finer Pontiac Six. New refinements such as sweep­ ing, full-crown fenders, new, higher radiator, tilt­ ing beam headlights, place this car in a class far above that into which its phenomenally low price brings it. And,.back of all these evident improvements and o advances §tand the established Pontiac qualities of power, speed, stamina and economy—the qualities- .which won for Pontiac Six the most outstanding success ever accorded any new car during its first year. Only by seeing the New and Finer Pontiac Six, by driving it and by learning its new, lower prices, can you realize how great a thing has General Motors done in the field of the low-priced six.

M- B. Williams, writing in the Farmers’Advocate. For the last­ century, he remarks, “There has been an irresistable centrifugal pull from the country to the big town and the big city. Today, thanks to our new methods of transit, a clear­ ly defined centripetal movement is beginning to scatter the people of the city back to the country side. Industries are finding the cost of op­ eration in the big city, the higher taxes needed to finance the over­ grown city, and the higher wages de­ manded because of these mounting costs, of running the city, to be pro­ hibitive and intolerant. They are seeking the small towns as the more profitable field for their operations. The. workers, too, are each year re­ alizing more clearly the benefits of sunlight and clear air. They are looking for places in which they can have room to live and bring up tlieir families under, beautiful con­ ditions. Never before, therefore has the small town had such bright pos­ sibilities within its reach, The new passion for motor holidays is shuf­ fling the whole population of the continent. Through every small town on the main highway, thous­ ands of people pass each season, who are looking for a satisfactory site for either a home or an industry. Now the small towns that wake up first to the changing conditions of modern life must learn—if they are’ to benefit by these changes—that attractiveness, beauty, order, plan­ ned development, and the provisions of social amenities are absolutely necessary to catch the prosperity that is there for those who seek it. that is there for those who seek it," Jx6ter Chamber of Commerce Zlth, the Exeter Hortlcul- nii? liave, a Pr°Srai« along the citizens gen< orally should co-operate to make Ex- *4 “I0??, 1)eantiful and bettei place in which to Hye, Three and Four Burner, . lower-oven Type— $87.50 to $110.00 Cabinet Type--*- $110.00 to $185.00 Also supplied in All-White Porcelain Enameled i 6 Finish. ■a bSti(?£ 11,6 skWs 4 ' © 1 . * J .1 . 1—----------■",J A1 Come in and Make Your Choice Before This Special Offer Closes
